The only good thing to come out of Sweden was the fish

We usually don't do anything special for V-day since our anniversary is exactly a week after (2/21) & we have always celebrated that day instead. But, since this is our last Valentine's Day just the 2 of us, I took papa Rob out this weekend for a surprise dinner to the Melting Pot. Neither of us had been there before & the food was expensive as hell, but it was delicious (especially dessert). And an added bonus, I'm pretty sure I still smell like the cooking broth, because that's the only reason I can think why Rob is being extra nice to me.
And you know how we spent the rest of the weekend of love? Putting together IKEA furniture. If that doesn't scream romance, I don't know what does, because if you make it out of the experience still married, you must really love that person...or be carrying their child. As if assembling one piece wasn't bad enough, papa Rob & I needed to challenge ourselves & ended up putting together 3. THREE. My body hurts so bad today, I contemplated taking the day off from work, but I checked my employee handbook and we unfortunately do not receive time off for Swedish furniture incidents. I now have a deep-seated hatred for all things from Sweden (except for the Swedish fish, of course), and I think in the future, we'll stick to IKEA's 99¢ breakfast & not assemble any more of their furniture.
But the good news is, our nursery is now almost finished! All the furniture is put together and our bedding will be delivered today. We have to hang curtain rods, put stuff on the walls but other that that, all that's missing is a baby! Too bad we can't pick up one of those at IKEA...
